MacGregor's Gathering |
| The moon’s on the lake, and the mist’s on the brae |
| And the Clan has a name that is nameless by day; |
| Our signal for fight, that from monarchs we drew |
| Must be heard but by night in our vengeful haloo! |
| Then haloo, haloo, haloo, Grigalach! |
| If they rob us of name, and pursue us with beagles |
| Give their roofs to the flame, and their flesh to the eagles! |
| Then gather, gather, gather, Grigalach! |
| Gather, gather, gather, Grigalach! |
| While there’s leaves in the forest, and foam on the river |
| MacGregor, despite them, shall flourish for ever! |
| Glen Orchy’s proud mountains, Coalchuirn and her towers |
| Glenstrae and Glenlyon no longer are ours; |
| We’re landless, landless, landless, Grigalach! |
| Landless, landless, landless, Grigalach! |
| Through the depths of Loch Katrine the steed shall career |
| O’er the peak of Ben-Lomond the galley shall steer |
| And the rocks of Craig-Royston like icicles melt |
| Ere our wrongs be forgot, or our vengeance unfelt! |
| Then haloo, haloo, Grigalach! |
| If they rob us of name, and pursue us with beagles |
| Give their roofs to the flame, and their flesh to the eagles! |
| Then gather, gather, gather, Grigalach! |
| Gather, gather, gather, Grigalach! |
| While there’s leaves in the forest, and foam on the river |
| MacGregor, despite them, shall flourish for ever! |
| Then gather, gather, gather, Grigalach! |
| Gather, gather, gather, Grigalach! |
| Gather, gather, gather, &c |
| Gather, gather, gather, Grigalach! |
